Description
This file contains a presentation by Gordon Labillois focusing on self-government and a vision of the future for the Micmac Nation. The presenter outlines a plan for local government that recognizes the competitiveness of his community and our people, and would reflect the realities of the market-driven economy. Labillois provides a "Native Mission Statement" that provides the vision and focus required for self-government at the national, regional and community levels. A question-and-answer session with the Commissioners follows the presentation.
